My space for you

As a kid, I spent my school breaks creating my dream art & fashion magazine. I used 4 papers, glue and pencils. It talked about all the dreams I had and all the things I wanted to see and learn about. Then, I moved to diaries, and filled them with stories and sketches. Now, it is time to turn it digital and share it.

This magazine is the one I started as a kid, but with the answers I am finding ever since. This is what I do on Fridays after 5

Since I was a kid, I have filled notebooks and papers and blackboards with stories and drawings. I find it fun to learn how languages work and how they build the way we think. For years, I have looked for a way to develop a project that joins everything I like in a way that is sustainable in time (and because I think we should all document our journeys!) So, here is mine: this is a lifelong diary about ideas and experiences, illustrated by hand and written in what I remember from the languages I can speak.

This is not a brand, not a famous Tiktok account, not something to sell, not a letter to someone. This is a place where I can share the things I like. You will probably hardly see my face here, but you will see me somehow. It is only a celebration of letting my personality be nurtured, developed and shared, and that is already everything to me!

The background is a board because being a teacher, contrary to what my teachers in uni said, is not something you can just leave on your desk on Fridays after 5

This is what I wanted to see

(20 years later I still look for it)

I am an art teacher, I am learning my 5th language, I love art and fashion, research and reading philosophy and autobiographies. I love colors, stains and drawing by pen (sometimes en plein air). Here, I will be talking about people I admire and their impact on my life.

I have always loved the way people share their stories, keep a portfolio, and talk about life in a human, honest way. I don’t want this to be filtered. This is a real person’s project. For a long time, I have wanted to create something to pour my creativity into. Since I love creating, editing and sharing,

this is it!

Stories go back to every year of my life. They won’t be chronological and issues won’t be focused only on that particular month. Some things will not even be a part of my life, but dreams and ideas.

Every Friday after 5 I will share a new issue
